the merde! tea set is a playful homage to an unforgettable parisian encounter—born from a simple request for directions to a store called merde (aka "shit"). instead of just pointing the way, a kind local created a beautifully drawn and handwritten map, complete with must-see spots—including the corner where Amélie was filmed. that map, now framed as a cherished piece of art, became the heart of this tea set’s story. blending elegance with humor, merde! is a reminder that the best moments in travel aren’t just the destinations, but the unexpected connections along the way.
